I believe they meant that the air boss has a role like an ATC, in a more challenging situation (because you want to keep aircraft somewhat close). Whilst at the same time the air boss doesn't need anywhere near the same training as ATC

Housing as an investment here references the idea of owning the home you live in being a great source of capital gains. This depends wholely on appreciating value, which is orthogonal to affordability. The reason people care about this type

Ite called reciprocal because the fourier transformation is it's own inverse, and the input and output space have the same 'shape' (functions from the reals to the complex numbers). So they are considered two sides of the sam

Correctness is taken to mean "The program matches its specification". Or, more literally, "the program is a correct implementation of it's specification".

Where's the value? Anyone can get a cert from lets-encrypt. No users of your website care how trustworthy your CA is. And CA's are too big to fail, so you barely need to worry about your CA being removed by the trust store. So you

You can't use shor's algorithm with current quantum computers. But if we were to get bigger and better quantum computers, we should use shor's algorithm. And that would, in fact, break the crypto behind HTTPS, SSH, smard-card

It's not so much about the impact of the secrets leaking. Instead, its about the impact on communications if diplomats need to worry about their communications leaking.

Diplomatic communications about how you plan / succeed at undermining allies. Or communications about atrocities you knew were happening, but decided to ignore. There is plenty of reason to want to keep diplomatic and military communic

Sprints should give natural points to present to the end-user. Presenting to the end user is essential to getting feedback, and getting feedback is essential to building something the end user will actually use. You can get feedback without

In the margin, branches are more likely close to the hot path, so they are more likely to 'pollute' the instruction cache. Whilst exceptions have less of this. Though profile guided optimization will probably catch this. And it mi

These aren't failure points, they are significant roadblocks. First way to overcome this is attesting on true raw files. Then mostly just transferring raw files. Possibly supplemented by ZKPs that prove one imagine is the denoised vers

If you make it expensive enough to extract, and tie the private key to a real identity, then you can make it hard to abuse on scale. Here I mean that at point of sale you register yourself as owner for the camera. And you make extracting a

You handle the authentication by signatures with private keys embedded in hardware modules. An AI isn't going to be able to fake that signature. Instead, the system will fail because the keys will be extracted from the hardware modules

Could it be that overallocation means you need a bigger search to find empty places or answer queries?

Yes, not half of America supports the slide into facism. But I think some of those who supported trump need to publicly disavow this slide in order for opposition to be viable. Resistance to facism make a lot more sense if people believe a

Does it matter that this election was won with a clear margin, also in the popular vote? I feel like it does. Rebellion and protest wil require those who supported Trump to change their mind. Democracy demands it. Which shows that things ge

This isn't something done to enable harm. It's meant to be directly harmful, and to signal an immediate win. It is 'follow up' on promises made and it signals to others "hating trans people is acceptable now".

China supresses information because they fear the anger of the oppressed. This censorship is much more petty. "My child hates me, and it can't be my fault. Let's call some modern progress ideology, and stomp all over it"

Normally, diffraction and the effective aperture are what limit optical resolution. How does that work with gravitational lensing? Does the effective aperture become the diameter of the sun?

It feels like there's a legitimate 'cobras problem' risk with this. Though I guess it's more like hiring and training mercenaries. Because you are training people with dangerous skills, promising them money in return. If

You can't solve capacity or 'caring' problems at 911 by just paying more, or threatening to buy services elsewhere. So there's good reason to think it's not what corporations want.

Notably, unsigned integers also have defined behavior for overflow. This means compilers can do less optimization on unsigned integers. For example, they can't assume that. x + 1 > x for unsigned ints, but are free to assume that fo

A diffractive lens works by having small holes in a plate, at least as I understand it. The diffractive pattern then interferes constructively at the focal point. So the transparent material is just 'air' or more likely, vacuum. I

Could diffractive optics be a decent alternative to reflective optics for EUV lithography? It has the same advantage of not needing a refractive material that works with EUV, but you can stick with optics that are 'inline'. I gues

You need trenches, or something similar, if you are going to mount any kind of lasting defense. Specifically, you need a safe way to run your logistics (or in military terms: your lines of communication, which refers to your supply lines, n
